They've just been talking about how they have fixed all the flaws with the TKO600 with their RS600. They basically said that it's a truck transmission that has been made to work for cars (if I remember correctly). As for what I would want, I'm not completely sure. I know Summit wants $2200 for one, so I would probably want $1800 or $1900 depending on if I include shipping in the cost or not.

If you think you'll road race at all I'd be leary about a stock TKO. you can also send it to liberty for upgrades.

I like the idea of the RS600 but as you said it's not truly tested and shipping/delivery seems up in the air still.

Not an easy call but the TKO I had didn't shift very smoothly right out of the gate.
I've already cut the tunnel once so modifying it isn't a big deal for me, althogh I've already finished the underneath so would prefer not to cut it again. How much difference is there in fitting a T56? Right now I am leaning towards the RS600 as it should bolt right in and will work with the scatter shield I already have. But like you said, it's still not truly tested, although Keisler did say that they have been running that transmission, or something very similar for years now. It is the shifting of the TKO that I am worried about though.
